Excuse me, may I rent your car? - Robin Chase

TED-Ed · Beginner ·🚀 Entrepreneurship & Startups ·13y ago
A decade ago, Robin Chase founded Zipcar in the US, now the largest car-sharing company in the world. Now she's exploring the next level of car-sharing: Buzzcar, a French startup that lets people rent their own cars to others. The details are fascinating (how does insurance work, exactly?), and the larger vision (she calls it Peers, Inc.) points to a new definition of ownership and entrepreneurship. Talk by Robin Chase.
